in order to investigate effect of deficit irrigation on phenological stages and yield of soybean cultivars, an experiment was conducted as split plots based on randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural research farm, university of guilan in 2009. main factor was included four irrigation levels based on potential moisture 30-35 (i1), 50-55 (i2), 70-75 (i3) centibar...

A field experiment was conducted at the Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University Farm, Dhaka 1207 during the period from December 2008 to April 2009 to study the role of potassium and sulphur on the growth, yield and oil content of soybean (Glycine max var.BARI Soybean-5). The experimental soil was clay loam in texture having pH of 6.3. The experiment included four levels of potassium viz. 0, 20, ...

Seasonal variation (e.g. temperature and photoperiod) between growing seasons might affectinulin content and inulin yield of Jerusalem artichoke. However, there is limited information ongenotypic response to seasons for inulin content and inulin yield. The objective of this studywas to investigate the variability in genotypic response to seasons for inulin content and inulinyield of Jerusalem a...

The efficacies of Heterodera glycines-resistant 'Fayene' soybean and aldicarb for managing H. glycines were compared to the experimental nematicides DS-47187 10F, DS-47357 10F, DS-48145 10F, DS-48165 10F, DS-46995 10F and 5G, and DS-38697 5G during 1981-83. Yield of Fayette was greater than yield of the H. glycines-susceptible cultivar treated with nematicide in 1981 and 1983. Yield of aldicarb...

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of cover crops and timing of pre-emergence herbicide applications on soybean yield under no-tillage system. The experiment consisted of four cover crops (Panicum maximum, Urochloa ruziziensis, U. brizantha, and pearl millet) and fallow, in addition to four herbicide timings (30, 20, 10, and 0 days before soybean sowing), under no-tillage sys...

The effect of sole application of inorganic fertilizers (NPK) (N:P:K:: 30:26:25 kg ha ) and combined application of farmyard manure (FYM) @ 4 Mg ha 1 and inorganic fertilizers (NPK + FYM) vis-a-vis nonapplication of fertilizers and manures (control) on changes in soil physical properties and plant growth characteristics of soybean (cv. JS 335) was studied in a deep Vertisol at the Indian Instit...

to evaluate the effects of sowing date, cultivars and herbicides on weed species control and soybean yield, a strip split plot layout in as a randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in dasht-e-naz company sari-iran, in 2008. treatments included two planting dates (planting june 7th and 27th), soybean cultivars (bp, jk, 032, 033 and sahar) and herbicide application...

Intercropping of corn and soybean is widely practiced in agricultural production. However, few studies have investigated the effect intercropping fertilizer reduction on yield. In present study, were interplanted 2:2, 2:3 2:4 ratios. Two levels (normal: 600 kg/ha VS. reduced: 375 kg/ha) set. The effects planting patterns growth yield soybeans studied based changes enzyme activities related to n...

Conservation agriculture (CA) practices are being widely promoted in many areas in sub-Saharan Africa to recuperate degraded soils and improve ecosystem services. This study examined the effects of three tillage practices [conventional moldboard plowing (CT), hand hoeing (MT) and no-tillage (NT)], and three cropping systems (continuous maize, soybean-maize annual rotation, and soybean/maize int...
